Who Asks About NC?
Florida was the leading source of inquiries for travel in
formation on North Carolina in 1970 according to the De
partment of Conservation and Development's Travel and
Promotion Division.
Bill F. Hensley, director of the Travel and Promotion
Division, announced that residents of the Sunshine State
accounted for 26,574 inquiries during the year.
Os the 151,893 inquiries received by the Dirts i0n,17,981
were from North Carolinians planning trips within their
own state.
Georgia was second in inquiries with 12,298. Ohio was
third with 10,183, Virginia fourth with 9,9993, and Mary
land with 8,630 rounded out the top five.
A special "Autumn" newspaper advertising supplement
drew 47,272 inquiries. The supplement appeared in the
Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Cincinnati Enquirer, Miarri
Herald, St. Petersburg Times, Tampa Tribune and Times
and the Washington Post.
A surprise was the unusually "strong showings" of Cali
fornia (2,646), Texas (2,937), and Indiana (2,438), ac
cording to Hensley. All three states outdrew neighboring
South Carolina and Tennessee.
Eighty-nine foreign countries requested information on
travel opportunities in the Tar Heel State. Canada was
the leading producer of foreign inquiries with 3,851.
One real surprise was the drop in ranking by New York
The Errpire State has either led or been second every year
since 1960. This year New York was sixth. Rounding out
the top ten were Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Illinois and
Michigan.
Hensley said he was especially pleased with the high
ranking of Kentucky, Wisconsin, Alabama, Connecticut,
Massachusetts, Louisiana, Missouri and West Virginia.
